 Part 1 airs 8pm Monday, October 8 Also 10/10 1am, 4am  Part 2 airs 8pm Tuesday, October 9 Also 10/11 2am A transformative place for reinvention, where young women could become lion tamers and young men traveled the world as roustabouts, the circus allowed people to be liberated from the roles assigned by society and find an accepting community that had eluded them elsewhere. Drawing upon a vast and richly visual archive, and featuring a host of performers, historians and aficionados, “The Circus” brings to life an era when Circus Day would shut down a town, its stars were among the most famous people in the country, and multitudes gathered to see the improbable and the impossible, the exotic and the spectacular.

Through the intertwined stories of several of the most innovative and influential impresarios of the late 19th century, including P.T. Barnum, James Bailey and the five Ringling Brothers, the series reveals the circus as a phenomenon created by a rapidly expanding and increasingly industrialized nation. It explores how its “dangerous” and “exotic” attractions revealed the country’s notions about race and Western dominance, and shows how the circus subverted prevailing standards of “respectability” with its unconventional, titillating and “freakish” entertainments.

AMERICAN EXPERIENCE

Eugenics Crusade  Airs 8pm Tuesday, October 16 Also 10/18 2am

The word “eugenics” tends to conjure gruesome images of Nazi concentration camps and the millions of casualties from Hitler’s ruthless campaign for racial purity.

American eugenics was neither the work of fanatics, nor the product of fringe science. The goal of the movement was to eradicate social ills by limiting the number of those considered to be genetically “unfit.” At its peak in the 1920s, the movement was mainstream, packaged as a progressive quest for “healthy babies.”

For many Americans, the idea that humanity could be scientifically perfected held an almost irresistible allure. At a moment when “improvement” and “progress” were the rallying cries of the day, eugenics appeared to be an unusually efficient and effective strategy, one designed to eradicate social problems.

As the Great Depression proved that poverty and other social ills could befall even those from the best of families, the dogma of the eugenics movement rang ever more hollow.

Although the craze was fleeting, the laws passed in the name of eugenics and the impulse that inspired them proved far more durable, lingering on in American life well after the movement’s scientific foundations were discredited by geneticists themselves.

Every summer, the American West burns. Inside each of these fires are small crews who work to contain them by hand, using shovels, pickaxes, and methods that haven’t changed in sixty years.

With a lifelong admiration for those who do this dangerous work, filmmakers and native Westerners Jablonski and Hudson went through firefighting training with the men in the film, in Grants Pass, Oregon, a sleepy mountain town. Here they toiled alongside and chronicled the lives of the men on their fire crew. Each of them has come to this work for personal reasons—for some, it’s a need to test themselves, or a desire for adventure and purpose; for others, it may be the job of last resort after time in prison or a lifetime of addiction.
